The kids have been busy picking blackberries the last week, so I decided to surprise them with a Blackberry Crisp for all their hard work!
I usually will make Blackberry Cobbler, but I was in the mood for Crisp on this occasion with it's lemony, vanilla, almond crust, and a big scoop of vanilla ice cream! It's easy enough for even the kids to make, but tasty enough to serve to company with pride.
Blackberry Crisp is the ultimate summer dessert and the perfect way to celebrate the summer's bounty of berries!
In a mixing bowl fitted with a paddle attachment beat together:
- 3/4 cup Granulated Sugar
- 3/4 cup Brown Sugar
- 2 teaspoons Grated Lemon Zest
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla
Add:
- 1 1/2 cups All-Purpose Flour
- 1 cup Oatmeal
- 1 cup Sliced Almonds or favorite nut
- 1/2 teaspoon Salt
Add 14 tablespoons Cold Butter, one tablespoon at a time until mixture is crumbly, and butter is no longer visible. Set aside.
In a large bowl gently mix together:
- 8 cups Blackberries
- 1/2 cup Granulated Sugar
- 1/4 cup Brown Sugar
- 1/3 cup All-Purpose Flour
- 1/2 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
Place Blackberry mixture in a 9"x13" pan.
Press the Lemony Almond Crumb topping between fingers and distribute evenly over Blackberries.
Bake Blackberry Crisp in a 350 degree preheated oven for 1 hour or until lightly brown.
Serve Blackberry Crisp with a big scoop of Vanilla Ice Cream.

This looks heavenly, Serena! I definitely have a fondness for berry desserts :)
Our family loves fruit crisps and cobblers! This one will be added to our recipes. A fond boyhood memory of one of our sons is blackberry picking with one of his friends and making the crisp afterwards. Happy Weekend!
